Media Matters

Things were afoot in the media, as usual but a few unique items caught our attention.  Take Kathy Tur of MSNBC pictured above.  She said.  "The people don't trust us."  Meaning the media or as we like to refer to them The Mass Hysteria.  She has come to this conclusion because a) she's in the media and on TV, so people must be yelling things at her when she walks around.  And b) the latest Gallup Poll that showed only 11 percent of the American people believe the Mass Hysteria.  She thinks this is a problem.  Now you would think that the rest of the Talking Heads in the Mass Hysteria would be chiming in on this but then, she's the only one.  No one else in the Mass Hysteria seems to have paid it much mind.  Then again maybe the Talking Heads don't believe the poll.  After all, polls are conducted by various elements in the Mass Hysteria.

Now Old Brains Biden has come down with the Kung Flu, despite four vaccine shots and walking around with a mask all the time. For those of you, you few, you precious few who are worried about Old Brains, he says he feels fine.  But then he's probably reading that off the teleprompter so you few, you precious few, maybe you should keep worrying.

Now a man in Colorado Barry Morphew, whose wife went missing back in May of 2020, copped a plea but not to anything related to her disappearance, like her murder.  No, he plead guilty to using her mail in ballot, to vote for Donald Trump.  And, people in this country think elections are legit.  But Barry Morphew said he had no idea that he couldn't use her ballot to vote for Trump.  His wife had wanted to vote for Trump and he figured The Donald could use the extra vote.  So, Barry knew his wife wouldn't mind or say anything either.

Bill Clinton and The Interstellar Aliens

It seems that former President Bill Clinton showed up on the James Cordon Late Late show that airs after midnight, to tell how he sent agents into Area 51 to find out if interstellar Aliens had been coming to earth.  Our 42nd President felt that he, and all of us needed to know.  And, we think it's nice to find out that our 42nd President wasn't just sitting in the oval office getting BJ's and smoking a cigar but was hot on the case of interstellar Aliens coming to earth.  He even sent in his chief of staff John Podesta and his number one Minister of Plenipotentiary Sandy Berger, into area 51, to seek the truth.  This sort of reminds us of the Sci-fi movie 'Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter' where our 16th President is fighting the Civil War by day and killing Vampires by night.  They call these type of movies, mixed genre.  It's where you take two established movie genres like a Civil War movie and a Vampire movie and mix them together.  Another movie of this kind was 'Cowboys and Aliens' where they took a Western and threw in some interstellar Aliens.  They even had Daniel Craig aka James Bond, as one of the Cowboys.

Now you may wonder why Billy Bob Clinton would show up on TV and a Late Late show that airs after midnight.  Well we're kind of thinking that no one has been paying too much attention to ole Billy Bob anymore.  His antics as President that everyone thought were cute at the time, are not looked at in the same manner nowadays.  And maybe, just maybe he'd like people to see him in a different light.  Not the guy who "Did not have sexual relations with that woman." but then left the mess on her dress while smoking a cigar.  Maybe he'd like it if someone made a movie called.  'Bill Clinton Alien Hunter'.

We kind of see George Clooney or Harrison Ford or hell, ole Billy Bob could even play himself.  We think he's that good of an actor.  And, then maybe, well maybe, everyone would forget the mess on her dress, the BJ's and the cigar.

What do you think?

Who'd A Thunk it?

For all you men out there this one really has to hurt.  Seems when Pete Davidson told Kim Kardashian.  "Let's get some ice cream.  Let's go to Thrifty's."  Well...  How can we put this since we're a family channel...  She just melted.  Actually, in the interest of accuracy and journalism in general we have to use her actual language and she said when Pete said that she got "so f*cking horny".  Sorry about that.  But who knew?  We mean guys, think about all the money you spent on dinners, concerts, trips to somewhere, rings, not to mention mortgage payments and maybe all you had to do was head to Thrifty's for some ice cream.  Who'd a' thunk it?

And Prince Charles the Man Who Would Be King and sooner than later, has been admonished by members of the Prime Minister's Cabinet for making political statements.  Seems Bonnie Prince Charlie the Man Who Would Be King and sooner than you may think, has spoken out against the current government policy of relocating asylum seekers to Rwanda.  And the Politicos say that's not his job!  But Charlies is The Prince of Wales, Earl of Chester, Duke of Cornwall, Duke of Rothesay, Earl of Carrick, Lord of the Isles, Barron of Renfrew, Prince and Steward of Great Scotland and soon to be The King!  What are they saying here, that all that doesn't mean a thing, anymore?  And, it used to be good to be The King.  Ahh who'd a' thunk it?

And who'd a' thunk this one.  Californians fed up with high crime, high taxes, high cost of living and the homeless everywhere they turn, are now not just fleeing to Texas and Arizona but also to Mexico!  Especially if they work remotely or if they can buy a home close to the border so they can commute easily.  This in turn is driving housing prices up in Mexico.  Mexican citizens are outraged as they are being priced out of their own neighborhoods!  Oh, the humanity! 

Maybe they should build a wall.

A Symbol For Our Time?

We've been discussing this for the last few weeks around here and it's what Amber Heard left in the bed for Johnny Depp to find, when he woke up.  We've been wondering if that little pile of human residue might stand for something.  Something more than just a little pile.  It has left an indelible image, as once seen, it can hardly be unseen. Maybe it's a symbol of the times we live in?  Maybe it's even iconic?

Take the Kung Flu... please.  Perhaps it should be the mask, as the symbol of what The Pandemic was all about.  But then after two years they told us that most of the masks we were all wearing didn't work.  We should have been wearing the NK95 mask.  All the rest, the paper ones that Surgeons wear on TV shows, the bandannas that made the wearer look like he was going to hold up the next Stagecoach and especially the cloth ones that most of us were wearing, as you could wash them and use them again, well... They just weren't up to par.  They didn't really offer any protection.  But then we had to keep wearing the masks, the paper ones, the bandannas and the cloth ones, none of which worked.  And, we've noticed lately that people are discarding the masks even though the case load is roaring along at 105,000 cases a day.  So the mask just wouldn't suffice, as a symbol of The Pandemic.  No, we're all coming around to the idea that the symbol of The Pandemic, should be what Amber left in the bed for Johnny, when he woke up. 

Take the price of a gallon of gasoline.  You could just take a picture of the sign at the gas station as the price keeps rising and it gets over $5.00 and say that says it all.  But does it really?  Does it measure all the exasperation, the pain and the anger as rising prices drain your wallet?  Not hardly.  Would a picture of Old Brains Biden with a caption 'What Me Worry' suffice?  No, the poor man's mind is gone.  He doesn't know.  No, the real symbol of The Great Gas Debacle of 2022 is more like what Amber left in the bed for Johnny, when he woke up. 

Maybe we should make a Poster or a Flag?  There's already an emoji for it. No, a statue.  Then it would really be iconic.  But no, people would object, protest and demonstrate, again. What could be more boring than that? No, maybe since the image is so indelible and once seen cannot be unseen, maybe all we need do is recall it, whenever and wherever it applies.

A Bad Week

Star crossed lovers Casey the murder suspect and Vicky the Jail Guard, took off on a Bonnie and Clyde type of jaunt after she helped him escape.  All manner of law enforcement were hot on their heels.  U.S. Marshalls finally caught up to them and ran their car off the road.  She then turned her gun on herself.

And, in Wallkill NY an NYPD Police officer tracked his wife and her 20 year old lover to a motel.  Then, after a wild car chase, he shot the 20 year old lover multiple times.  Then the Officer turned his gun on himself.  The wife was unharmed.  All in all, it was a bad week for love.

And Vladimir Putin was seen at the 77th Russian Victory Day over the Nazis Parade with a blanket over his lap.  This blanket seems to have some great significance to the Cognoscenti of The Known World, that escapes us.  They see ill health in that blanket, as if it was the Scythe of the Grim Reaper, who was coming to pick it and Vlad up later.  Not that Vlad is 70 years old and feels the cold a little more nowadays.  No, the rumors which emanate from The Cognoscenti themselves, are that Vlad has everything from Alzheimer's to Dementia (nothing new among world leaders today) to Parkinson's to Cancer.

And, the war in Ukraine isn't going so well for Vlad, as he's losing guys, tanks, planes and even ships.  Then they seized Vlad's 700 or 800 million dollar yacht and well, when was the last time Vlad had a good week?  Come to think about it when was the last time our President Old Brains, had a good week?

And and ex-staffer of John McCain who was a hero, and yes we have dropped to one knee and are genuflecting at the mention of his name, we always do, but this ex-staffer claims that John McCain who was a hero and yes we have dropped to one knee and are genuflecting as the mention of his name, we always do, but this ex-staffer says yes, he can confirm the rumor that John McCain had a long time affair with a lobbyist.  And, he sent government business her way.  And yes!  This aide goes on to say that John McCain also had ties to Vladimir Putin!  So will this tarnish the image of John McCain, hero?  Did he have a bad week too?  Only time will tell.

WAAAA!!!

Anyone besides us seem to notice that every few weeks there is a whole bunch of people just going WAAAA!!!  This last week someone leaked a future Supreme Court decision.  WAAAA!!!  Of course there is also a huge hue and cry over who leaked it WAAAA!!!!!  Why?  Was this going to be a state secret?  Something like the NOC list in the first Mission Impossible movie or the identities of British Secret Agents in the James Bond movie Skyfall?  Something who's contents are so secret that no one could ever know about them?  You know one of these things where if the contents become known, governments would topple and people would die?  So people found out now instead of when?  A few weeks from now?  WAAAA!!!!  There has been so much WAAAA!!!!! over this that everyone seems to have forgotten that Elon Musk bought Twitter.

And over there in Fairfax Virginia  actress Amber Heard is going WAAAA!!! as the defamation trial brought by her ex-husband Johnny Depp who went WAAAA!!! first, is going on.  No wait, she said WAAAA!!! first, as she said he beat her.  But he now says no, he didn't beat her, he only hit her.  So wait, maybe she went WAAAA!!! first.  That's why they call these things, he said, she said.  But because she said he beat her, he can't find work in Hollyweird to the tune of 50 million dollars, so WAAAA!!!  Poor babies.  And as the dirty laundry of their marriage spills out and we mean dirty, as he once woke up to find she took a dump in his bed, it sounds like they had a helluva marriage.

And some guy ran on stage and tackled comedian Dave Chappelle near the end of his show.  Chappelle got knocked down but he took the guy with him.  Then the guy got escorted backstage by ten guys.  The guy who might have been trying to audition for the NFL, later emerged on an ambulance gurney headed for the ER.  Looks like he got to go WAAAA!!! for real.  

But the moral of the story here is if you feel the urge to go WAAAA!!! maybe you want to count to ten first, or take a pill or a drink of some hard stuff.  Or go close the bedroom door and let it out in private.  But don't go WAAAA!!! out loud in public.  Have a little class.

OMG!

Dr. Faucci said.  "The US is out of the Pandemic phase."  OMG!  No, that is a double OMG!!  Now we checked the CDC data tracker and we noticed that the daily average of cases is still ringing in at 47,000 plus.  More or less at the same rate when the Pandemic was in it's heyday in early 2020.  So we're kind of wondering if the Pandemic is really over or has Dr. Faucci just noticed that everyone is taking off the masks and not listening to him anymore?

And, yes fans Elon Musk, he of Tesla, Space X and Pay Pal has taken over Twitter!  That is another double OMG!!  I mean you would think from all the hue and cry and all the tears shed over this sale, that the Titanic had sunk again.  Or at the very least they were making another movie or documentary about the Titanic sinking again.  Besides, we love the sound of tears in the morning.  They sound like... victory.

And, you have to hand it to Elon Musk.  For years, no for decades conservatives have been crying like little b*tches about how unfair the lame stream media and the social media are towards them.  Aside from crying like little bit*hes they have never done anything.  Along comes Elon and we don't even know if he's particularly political but he doesn't like the way Twitter operates, so just buys the damn thing.  You could say that Elon is the richest man in the world but he's not even using his own money.  He lined up a bunch of investors.  And, we're sort of wondering if all the crying little bitc*es are now saying OMG why didn't we think of something like this?  Maybe they're even going double OMG!!, why didn't we think of doing something like this?  Probably not. 

And yeah that's a picture of Dustin Johnson and Paulina Gretzky from their wedding at the top of the page.  We wish them both health, happiness and many years together.  And, if she's not double OMG!!, then no one is.
